At one point, I was bombarded by this topic. Reddit, NPR, Twitter, every single voice left leaning voice was beating this drum.

Why? We didn’t accomplish universal healthcare, women’s rights are under attack, climate change is unaddressed, nazis are growing in boldness and volume.

We, in the left, have failed in most of our latest crusades (certainly the ones in my life) because the regressive powers are entrenched and organized. Is this really the time to change focus again??

I like that you used the word "crusades". Says a lot about how some people on the left view themselves.

The problem is you think the left isn't full of regressive powers.

You, in the left, have failed because you're guilty of what you claim others are doing and do so while calling anyone you disagree with "nazi's" and "racists". making those "slurs" worth less than the promises you're failing to kill us all with.

If you think nazi and racist is a slur, and not a label, you’re a moron. There’s people waving nazi flags and saying racist things towards Jews, Asians, African Americans, and others, what should we call these people?

If I were to call you a nazi, would that be a label or a slur?

Both are true: Real Nazis exist and the word is grossly overused as a slur
